You have tried and learned many famous jazz routines. You have worked on using jazz steps in improvisation, and you use musicality in your dancing.

facts about…
Dean Collins was born in Columbus, Ohio, and then moved to Newark, New Jersey. Collins started dancing at the Savoy Ballroom in Harlem, New York City, at 14. By 18, he received the Dancer of the Year award from the New Yorker Magazine. He left New York for New Orleans and finally arrived in Los Angeles (Venice, Ca.) in 1936 to get into the movies.
He won his first dance contest in California at the Palomar Ballroom and started teaching his version of Savoy Style Lindy, leading the way for what is today called West Coast Swing. Dean was very active in the swing dance community until he passed away in 1984 at the age of 67.
